Jam Of The Year
Somebody's Somebody
White Mansion
Mr Happy
Sex In The Summer
Emale
Joint 2 Joint
The Holy River
Face Down
Da,Da,Da
My Computer
The Love We Make

and i'm gonna change the name of the album to Jam Of The Year cuz that is a commercial album with a few gems on it.

That's kinda close to what I would choose, Milty, only I never could stand Sex In The Summer, and Face Down and Da, Da, Da don't appeal particularly much to me.

Instead I would include In This Bed eye Scream, Curious Child and Dreamin' About U.

I think. (I might change my mind tomorrow...)

No, wait... I also really like The Human Body and New World. To make room for those, I'd remove Jam Of The Year and Mr. Happy and call the album Joint 2 Joint or somethin' instead.

I didn't see the Jam Of The Year tour. It didn't reach these shores. But I bought the tape with the "live" version of Face Down. I think I've mebbe heard it twice. sigh

But I ain't sayin' it's bad. You like it. That's cool. It's just that there are songs onn Emancipation that I like a whole lot better.

I doubt that any two fans would have the exact same favorites on Emancipation. Betcha there are even those who think Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother/Wife is a romantic song. lol
